Numerical evaluation of multi-loop integrals

Abstract

We present updates on the development of pySecDec, a toolbox to numerically evaluate parameter integrals in the context of dimensional regularization. We discuss difficulties with loop integrals in the special kinematic condition where the squared momentum of a leg is equal to the squared mass of a propagator. We further discuss some features of a Quasi Monte Carlo (QMC) integrator that can optionally run on Graphics Processing Units (GPUs).
